The image is a charcoal drawing of a human figure shown from the upper body down to the legs in a crouched position. The person is leaning forward with their left elbow resting on their left knee and their left hand supporting their chin. The facial features are simplified, and the hair is depicted with loose lines. The figure is unclothed, focusing on the body's shape and form. The background is a plain, textured paper with a stamp reading "ARCHIVES RD" in the upper right. No additional features or surroundings are depicted, emphasizing the figure.
